If two angles are both supplementary to the same angle, then the two angles are of equal measure. When two parallel lines are crossed by a third line, the same side interior angles will be supplementary. Any two consecutive angles in a parallelogram will also be supplementary.
A child of the Enlightenment movement, John Locke, wrote the Social Contract that first allowed the justification for America to break away from England. Enlightenment also câ¦ontributed to the ideas of equality, religious tolerance, and freedom of speech that was adapted by the US government.
Since the 1960s, historians have debated the Enlightenment's role in the American Revolution. Before 1960 the consensus was that liberalism, especially that of John Locke, was paramount; republicanism was largely ignored. The new interpretations were pioneered by J.G.A.y far the most important French sources to the American Enlightenment, however, were Montesquieu's Spirit of the Laws and Emer de Vattel's Law of Nations. Both informed early American ideas of government and were major influences on the Constitution.
